Come again? Are you trying to confuse me? :p
Give me any words from anywhere, do you really speak that different?
Well that was a simple sentence transcribed into Mackem dialect, possibly better known as the area immediately south of the River Tyne and north of the river Wear. Not to be confused with the more commonly known (and equally commonly misused) "Geordie". FTM.
Sure........ok? :p

Originally posted by Geaux Hagen Jeff. I lived in "Nawlins" for 4 years and never heard it pronounced like that unless i happened to be near tourists. unfortunately, that was quite often but...Nawlins was conceived of to sell hats and t-shirts. the correct, or local pronuciation is New (just like it looks) Orluns (i wish i had a schwa on my keyboard--either a short e or u sound) definitely not new orleens. the local dialect is called "Yat" and it may be the ugliest/most annoying accent in the world. I had a good time living there but there is no future for that city. best time to visit is Halloween. all the madness of mardi gras without the tourists. i still don't believe i saw what i saw halloween 95.
You mean somebody lied to me??? I can't freaking believe it!!!
